New upgrade options for Real NZ scenery for FSX

The official REAL NZ support forum

Postby toprob » Wed Oct 08, 2008 10:43 am

As the FSX versions were released over a long period, I dealt with updating each scenery individually. For instance, for Rotorua and Tauranga, it was assumed that everyone who owned the FS2004 version, and now used FSX (or both) would use the free downloadable update.

When I released Real NZ Wellington for FSX, I offered a half price replacement CD for a short time, but when a couple of months went by since the last order, I dropped this option to keep the Store nice and simple. Anyway, 'Across the Strait' was a much better, and popular, choice, for existing owners of Wellington or Marlborough.

But what about those who didn't take each update offer as it was available? This mainly applies to those who have since moved from FS2004 to FSX.

It also applies to those who want the ease of a specific FSX installer, rather than the admittedly inelegant updaters.

To help these folk, I've re-activated the half-price replacement CD offer for Wellington, and included the same offer for Rotorua/Tauranga. So, those who already owned all the FS2004 scenery could upgrade to full FSX CD versions for:
Real NZ Wellington $21.50;
Real NZ Rotorua/Tauranga $21.50;
'Southern Lakes Adventure' $21.50.
...which totals $64.50.

(Real NZ Marlborough already included both FS2004 and FSX versions, although there is a small update required for FSX SP2.)

Or, you could go for this option:
'Across the Strait' $32.50
Real NZ Rotorua/Tauranga $21.50
'Southern Lakes Adventure' $21.50
...which totals $75.50.

Just choose each individual product from the store, and select the appropriate option. Don't order the 'FSX Collection'!

Of course you can choose any part of this offer -- for instance, you may wish to take advantage of the Rotorua/Tauranga free update (which gives the same scenery in the end, albeit with some tricky install steps) but order a replacement CD for Wellington and take the half price offer on 'Southern Lakes Adventure', which would cost $43.00 in total.

Have download those NortlandX files and been unable to extract the two main Folders (NortlandX.Z01 and Z02)....I am not conversant with the Z01 extension....and my system (XP) cannot extract the files.

Any assistance/advice would be much appreciated...

that file extension is usually Winzip files, but you can try using WinRAR

Is the upgrade option still available for the Wanaka package? - I can't find it on the Godzone site ..the link for the upgrade on the Southern Lakes/Wanaka package goes through to the Across the Straight upgrade page.

Edit: Dont worry just found it by looking elesewhere -- but the link is wrong from the Southern lakes FSX page
